it took a few weeks, but the album really grew on me.

I have to say hosetly that I am a little disspointed. I have been listening to it for about a week now and yes it is growing on me. It's just not their best effort.
5 years off, only 5 months went to the songs and a year to put together. Not to mention only 5 songs on a 11 song disc.
I have moved on to sleepy time gorilla musuem.

I was reading a review of this album on pitchfork, and I think they hit the nail on the head... this more of A Perfect Circle album than it is Tool.
- jasonmino0
good album
- skelly0
pitchfork sucks and so does that comparison. i don't see how this is more perfect circle than tool.
i was a little disappointed on first listen, but i'm loving it now, and I agree that it surpasses lateralus (but definitely not aenima). i agree about the drum & bass, I was just telling my friend I'd love to hear an unmixed version of just the drum and the bass.

i have to agree with namanamo, the lyrics are really perfect circley, i wouldn't say the music is tho. that's still tool.
i like the album. but i still don't reckon it's their best. the packaging is awesome, but i think that eventually the novelty will wear off and the lateralus packaging will resume the favourite position.

I've been listening to the album for a few weeks... and yes, it is a dissapointment. Much of it sounds recycled... nothing progressive. It sounds like the lateralus b-sides.
I do like Rosetta Stone... other than that, not worth the buy.
- sschmalz0
Rosetta Stoned = only killer track, and even that has grown weary over the past weeks.

it's okay. am with most people here.
instead of having all round great music (aemi,a) - seems Tool these days just play two notes, up and down, with clever timing and drumming.
kinda lost that edge - or that bit in the song you can't wait for.
- sschmalz0
And for an even more insane listening experience, I recommend the band 'unexpect'.
Wicked......\m/

yeah the whole thing is pretty disappointing, from the music to the artwork to the song titles. i can't believe i waited five years for this.
- CyBrainX0
I always feel tempted to boycott anyone that waits that long between releases.
You too Beastie Boys!!
